Post Cards Element

Last Update: August 22, 2024

The Avada Post Cards Element works in conjunction with individual Post Cards, which are created and designed through the Avada Builder Library. A Post Card is a custom layout template for various post types, including Blog posts, Portfolio posts, FAQs, Events, and WooCommerce Products. Using the Post Cards Element, the individual Post Cards can be displayed in Grids, Carousels, or Sliders in your pages and Layouts.

How To Use The Post Cards Element

The Avada Post Cards Element displays a custom post type grid, slider, or carousel based on the design of an individual Post Card and post type options. So before using the Post Cards Element, you must create at least one Post Card. This is done through the Avada Builder Library. See the How To Use Post Cards In Avada doc for more information on this process.

Once you have created your Post Card, you can use the Post Cards Element to display the layout on a page. Add the Element to a page, and configure the options to display your chosen post type in your preferred layout.

Element Options

Note: The displayed option screens below show ALL the available options for the element. If you have Avada’s Option Network Dependencies turned on, you will only see options relevant to your selections, and so the options screen may look somewhat different.
